And did you have a hard time proving it? I was so well trained back in the day that everyone thought I was a guy! :) Till I showed up at GenCon hehe. Good times.

Any of the women I have played against or on teams with, as I told Morgana offline, have been decent and relentless pilots.

I remember Gen Con in Milwaukee... and playing Battletech in the cockpits all Thursday night because the crowds haven't hit yet. Those were the days....

Nice to meet you Smooch Posted Image Unfortunately no, I never hid behind a gender neutral name. I let them believe I was just a helpless female, and then flanked the dickens out of them! Posted Image

oops, wait, I take that back. I did surprise a few while Dragoon_Python. :)

I suppose someone had to post something like that...

However, I've never had the pleasure of playing Mechwarrior with or against one, looking forward to it, but until that day I'm just going to assume they're neither better nor worse than any other random pilot out there.
On a side note, I'm going to crush you anyway, no matter what's your gender! :rolleyes:

Gosh I wish I could put up pics. I actually dug out my 800Mhz desktop out of the closet and tried to fire it up this weekend, in hopes to get to a crap load of files, screenshots, rosters, rules, and league web design, etc, but didn't have any luck. Not sure if the tower is shot or the monitor. But all I get is black screen. And of course the graphic cards didn't support digital, so trying one of the flat screen digitals was out of the question. (I am sooooo bummed, cause I really wanted access to the old stuff!)

Can't say I honestly ran into many female pilots in MW4 out side of NBT. Always wondered why there seemed to be so many fewer in MWL and the old Vengence league.

*raising hand* All the guys at MechCorps know who Nightmare is. :) And there were a couple other women that play.. who are a heck of a lot more deadly than I ever was.

I haven't had any problem with being a Woman in the world of Battletech, it just means that there WILL be some severe negotiations every 28 days or the Mech I'm riding in will suddenly go on a rampage.

At first, then, exhibit the coyness of a maiden, until the enemy gives you an opening; afterwards emulate the rapidity of a running hare, and it will be too late for the enemy to oppose you.

Thats what you ladies should do, pretend to be all girlie and then stomp all over them

Sorry been reading the art of war.

How many are out there? Who cares would be a better question. If you are a quality player you have a place in this game.
